WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Belle And Sebastian - Slow Graffiti Ukulele | Ver. 1
This is from Belle and Sebastian's 'This Is Just a Modern Rock Song' EP.
Having a very limited vocal range means I usually start getting complaints
Anyway, to make it easier you can play this with the capo on the first fret-
just play all the # chords as normal ones (C instead of C#, Am istead of
A#m, etc), and play the B as A#. It means you have to do less bar chords,
which if you're a beginner (or just a bad guitar player like me) you may
find helpful- it's probably not the way B&S play it though...
C#
There's a portrait
G#
In a back room
F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
C#
Which I relent
B
And gaze for hours on
A#m F#
The muscle, skin and bone
G#
Of some imaginary friend
F# G# F#
C#
So how about it
G#
Show me please
F#
How I will look in twenty years
C#
And let me please
B
Interpret history
A#m F#
In every line and scar
G#
That's painted there in front of me
F# G# F# G# F# G#
C#
It doesn't matter
G#
What I'm thinking
F#
What I tell myself to do
C# F#
I end up calling
C#
I stay in to
G#
Defrost the fridge
F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
C#
A feeling of dread
B
At least when she's around
A#m
The trouble's there
F# G#
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room
F# G# F# G# F# G#
C#
Listen Johnny
F#
You're like a mother
C# F#
To the girl you've fallen for
C#
And you're still falling
C#
Listen Johnny
G#
You're like a mother
F#
To the girl you've fallen for
C#
And you're still falling
B
And if they come tonight
A#m
You'll roll up tight
F# G#
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)
F# G# to end.
